[0025] Hereinafter, with reference to accompanying drawings, various embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail so that a person of an ordinary skill may easily implement the present disclosure. The present disclosure may be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein.

[0026] In order to clearly explain the present disclosure, parts that are not relevant to the description are omitted, and identical or similar components are assigned the same reference numerals throughout the specification.

[0027] In addition, the size and thickness of each component shown in the drawings are shown arbitrarily for convenience of explanation, so the present disclosure is not necessarily limited to what is shown. In the drawings, the thickness of layers, films, panels, regions, etc., are exaggerated for clarity. And in the drawings, for convenience of explanation, the thicknesses of some layers and regions are exaggerated.

[0028] It will be understood that when an element such as a layer, film, region, or substrate is referred to as being “on” another element, it may be directly on the other element or intervening elements may also be present. In contrast, when an element is referred to as being “directly on” another element, there are no intervening elements present. In addition, being “on” or “above” a reference element means being positioned on or below the reference element, and does not necessarily mean being positioned “above” or “on” in a direction opposite to gravity.

[0029] In addition, unless explicitly described to the contrary, the word “comprise”, and variations such as “comprises” or “comprising”, will be understood to imply the inclusion of stated elements but not the exclusion of any other elements.
